Eliot Spitzer's Preference For Rough, Kinky Sex Detailed In New Book 'Call Girl Confidential'

Eliot Spitzer liked to pretend he was an attacker, pin his hookers to their beds and choke them -- this according to one of his kinky sex partners, Rebecca Woodard, who described just such a scene in her new book, Call Girl Confidential.

"The more struggle there was, the more he was into it," Woodard writes, according to the New York Post. "When he grabbed my throat, that was too much."

"I don't know if he was trying to really hurt me, but he was?.?.?.I was nervous. I was worried. This is not OK.

"It got rough. And then he put his hands around my throat, strangling me."

The married Spitzer was the hard-charging New York Attorney General who became governor of New York in January, 2007.  But his political career crashed and burned in March, 2008 when he was caught up in a prostitution scandal. He tried to resurrect his standing by becoming a TV political commentator but it was a short-lived effort.

Woodward, who wrote her book under the name Rebecca Kade, says her "date" with Spitzer was booked by her boss, Madam Anna Gristina, who warned her the client "didn't want mainstream intercourse."

Woodward says she was paid $1,500 for the violent encounter, and that Spitzer tipped handsomely.

Spitzer remained married through it all, announcing only earlier this month that his union with Silda Spitzer was finally over.
